If the router receives any BECNs during the current time interval, it
decreases the transmit rate by 25%. The rate will continue to drop with each
BECN (limit one drop per time interval) until the traffic rate gets to the
minimum acceptable incoming or outgoing committed information rate (MINCIR),
where it stops.
Once the traffic rate has decreased, it takes 16 time intervals of receiving
no BECNs to start to increase traffic again. Traffic increases (Be+Bc)/16,
or more accurately, the byte limit that shows up in show traffic and show
frame-relay pvc x divided by 16. Thus, it takes much longer to get back to
committed information rate (CIR) than it did to drop to the MINCIR (similar
to slow start in TCP/IP). One way of making this length of time much shorter
would be to set "Be" 7 times the value of "Bc," which would ensure it gets
back to CIR immediately after going through 16 time intervals without a
BECN. Also of note is that this increase only occurs when traffic shaping is
active. If traffic shaping is not active, the transmit increment stays the
same even though BECNs are not being received.

Subject: what does becn and fecn high value indicate?
hi , Anyone
Knows what the BECN and FECN in sh frame-relay pvc indicates :
and a high BECN indicates what?
PVC Statistics for interface Hssi4/1 (Frame Relay DTE)
DLCI = 299, DLCI USAGE = LOCAL, PVC STATUS = ACTIVE, INTERFACE = Hssi4/1.10
input pkts 1263236605 output pkts 1388118986 in bytes 2167041222
out bytes 3760560232 dropped pkts 1 in FECN pkts 0
in BECN pkts 791683517 out FECN pkts 0 out BECN pkts 0
in DE pkts 29527 out DE pkts 0
out bcast pkts 16346 out bcast bytes 5868214
pvc create time 11w6d, last time pvc status changed 05:27:23
thanks
Jason
